"Miracle" is the third single from Whitney Houston's third album, I'm Your Baby Tonight. The song, written and produced by L.A. Reid and Babyface, and is about a girl who had an abortion but later feels she made a mistake. In an interview at that time, Houston acknowledged the song was indeed about abortion and praised Babyface for digging so deep with the song's lyrical content. Not wanting to alienate any fans, however, the video for the song doesn't stick with the subject, instead showing Houston singing and various photographs injected periodically.
The single reached number nine on Billboard's Hot 100 Singles Chart and number eight on the Hot 100 Single Sales, Houston's fourteenth consecutive Top 10 on that chart. It reached number two on the R&B Chart and number four on the Adult Contemporary Chart.
